Fish oil or Krill oil?

…it’s the question on everyone’s lipids (ho ho ho)

Surprise! The answer again is: we need more evidence! To date there is insufficient evidence to support one over the other, in terms of bioavailability and improved biomarkers.

BUT a good brand fish oil typically has a higher dose of DHA and EPA than krill oil, and so if bioavailability is constant, the fish oil gives you more omega-3 per pill.

WHICH FISH OIL?
This is the most important question. A cheap fish oil is actually worse than taking no fish oil. Supplementing with farmed fish oil is akin to sucking on a mercury and lead lollipop – they become high in heavy metals. Also, farmed fish are usually fed grains and have a much lower omega-3 content. As I like to say, You Are What You Eat Eats!!
